Li Zhang didn't expect Liu E to get up so early, but it was normal to think about it. Such a big thing happened in the palace, and the first priority was to calm people's hearts. She probably didn't sleep much last night.

Seeing Liu E speaking, Yan Shilang didn't dare to say anything else. He agreed and turned around and entered the room. After a while, Zhao Zhen, who was a little confused, walked out, and then Liu E took him to Gongchen Gate immediately.

Yanfu Palace was a little far from Gongchen Gate, so Liu E also asked someone to prepare a car to chase him. Zhao Zhen's Jingfu Palace was burned, and his car to chase him was also burned. So at this time, he simply took the same car with Liu E. Li Zhang cleaned up the hat on his head while walking. Because his hair was burned for most of the time, he didn't have time to clean it up that night, so he simply found a hat to wear it. After Zhao Zhen met the minister, he would go home and tidy it up.

When Liu E's car drove to Gongchen Gate, the sun had risen and the palace gate was opened, but the ministers had no order and could not enter the palace gate at will. They were all waiting outside. When they saw Liu E's car chased, everyone was shocked. Although Li Zhang had said before that Zhao Zhen was fine, they would not feel at ease before seeing Zhao Zhen with their own eyes.

I saw the car rushed to the city gate and stopped. Liu E was a woman, so there was a curtain in front of the car. Liu E said behind the curtain: "Thank you all, you have worked hard. There was a fire in the palace yesterday. Both the Ai family and Your Majesty are fine!"

"I was a little scared yesterday. I got up late today. I'm sorry, I've been waiting for a long time!" At this time, Zhao Zhen, who only heard behind the curtain, also spoke. Although he was not in power, he was the emperor after all, and he had to come forward to calm people's hearts at this time.

Hearing Liu E and Zhao Zhen's words, the civil and military officials outside Gongchen Sect breathed a sigh of relief, and then these people stepped forward and bowed: "Long live my emperor!"

However, just as everyone came forward to salute, Li Zhang, who was standing next to the car, found that Lu Yijian, the leader of all officials, was standing in front of the door and motionless. He, the prime minister, did not salute, and the other officials who salute were stunned. They didn't understand what was going on?

Liu E and Zhao Zhen, who were caught up with the car, were also a little strange at this time. They couldn't figure out which Lu Yijian was singing. At this time, the eunuch Luo Chongxun also immediately stepped forward and shouted, "What is Lu Xiang's intention? Why don't he go forward to salute?"

"There is a change in the palace, I am willing to look at the clear light!" I saw Lu Yijian step forward at this time, still staring at the carriage.

As soon as Lu Yijian said the words, everyone present changed their faces, and Li Zhang also showed a solemn expression. Lu Yijian's meaning was very clear, that was, he was unwilling to salute before he saw Zhao Zhen, but this also meant that he was suspicious of Liu E and worried that Zhao Zhen would be fake after the car was chased by the curtain. Thinking about the words Lu Yijian asked him before, this made Li Zhang completely understand.

However, Lu Yijian's words moved Zhao Zhen very much. He opened the curtain with his own hands so that Lu Yijian could see him. So Lu Yijian then stepped down and led all civil and military officials to salute again. However, Li Zhang next to him found that when he opened the curtain, Liu E, who was sitting behind Zhao Zhen, had a heavy face.

Li Zhang couldn't help but sigh when he saw this. If he were Liu E, he would probably be very angry. After all, as the prime minister, Lu Yijian was the one who promoted her by herself. However, at this critical moment, he would have doubts about her and was willing to salute him when he saw Zhao Zhen. This shows that in Lu Yijian's heart, Zhao Zhen's status is far above her.

After seeing Zhao Zhen safe, the ministers were relieved and immediately dispersed after the salute. Of course, several ministers stayed to deal with the fire in the palace. Li Zhang felt tired and hungry at this time, especially the burns on his body were also painful, so he bid farewell to Liu E and Zhao Zhen and left the imperial city.

After getting on the carriage, Li Zhang was also thinking about what happened today. Although the fire caused heavy losses in the palace, especially Zhao Zhen's place to burn all his living areas, Zhao Zhen's losses were nothing in comparison. Liu E should be the one who suffered the most serious losses, because she was losing the hearts of the ministers in the court.

Lu Yijian's performance just now clearly showed Lu Yijian's attitude. In his heart, Zhao Zhen was the master of the Song Dynasty. Never underestimate the influence of a prime minister, especially the prime minister of the Song Dynasty. His power is greater than that of all dynasties. It can even be said that in the Song Dynasty, the power of prime ministers could even be suppressed by imperial power.

The most important thing is that Lu Yijian was promoted by Liu E. In the past, Lu Yijian also followed Liu E's leader, but now he is standing on Zhao Zhen's side, which is a very serious psychological blow to Liu E.

"I'm afraid the empress dowager is not having a good time now, but this is also good. I hope that after this incident, she can see the situation clearly and stop making unnecessary attempts!" Li Zhang finally sighed and said again.

The carriage finally returned home, and the family had been very anxious. After all, Li Zhang went to the palace yesterday and didn't come back. As a result, there was a fire in the imperial city last night, so the family members were worried about Li Zhang's safety. Now, seeing Li Zhang coming back, I felt relieved.

"Honey is injured?" Qingzhi was the first to discover Li Zhang's strangeness. Although Li Zhang's face was not injured, his clothes were changed, and there was a hat on his head, and even his walking was a little strange.

"Nothing big is happening, I just suffered a little burn while putting out the fire, and I had applied medicine..."

Li Zhang was halfway through the explanation, but Li Er took off his hat by him, and the hair burned into a grass nest was exposed. This made everyone stunned. Then Li Er pointed at Li Zhang and laughed: "Brother, you look so funny!"

Li Zhang looks very funny now, because half of his hair is feverish, and the rest are all curved, which is a bit similar to the explosive heads of later generations. It is not a pity that Li Er and the others are funny, but Qingzhi showed a look of fear at this time. Even if she didn't know that Li Zhang rushed into the fire, it can be seen from Li Zhang's hair that Li Zhang must have encountered danger last night.

Li Zhang himself didn't care. He reached out and touched the curly hair on his head, but found that the back of his head was burned a lot, leaving only hair that was not long. This made him suddenly feel a flash of inspiration: "Since it's burning, then cut it, go get a pair of scissors, I'll cut it myself!"

"I'll do it, it's definitely inconvenient for my husband to cut it myself." At this time, Qingori smiled and said. Although her body was inconvenient, it was still okay to cut Li Zhang's hair.

Li Zhang nodded when he heard this, and then a maid took out scissors. Li Zhang taught Qingzhi to cut off all the burnt hair on his head. Although the remaining hair was still very long, it was already burned and yellow and would definitely break in the future. So Li Zhang also asked Qingzhi to cut it shorter and finally cut it into a short hair similar to that of later generations.

"Hehe, brother, you look so ugly now. Even your hair is so short. If you have a little shorter, you can become a monk!" Li'er said to tease him when she looked at Li Zhang at this time. Although short hair was the standard hairstyle for men in later generations, in this era when men all had long hair, Li Zhang's current appearance did not meet the aesthetic of this era.

"What do you know? Long hair is difficult to take care of, and short hair will be much more refreshing. Maybe short hair will be popular in the future. Even you women will keep your hair shorter." Li Zhang smiled and retorted. Of course, Li'er didn't believe in his words at all. She couldn't imagine what a woman would look like with short hair?

In fact, not only Li'er, but Qingzhi and the others were covering their mouths and laughing when they saw Li Zhang's short hair. They probably felt that Li Zhang's appearance was very interesting. However, Li Zhang looked at the mirror several times and was very satisfied. In fact, he also knew that short hair was not popular in this era, but his hair was burnt, especially the position on the back of his head was shorter. Instead of being long and short like a dog chewing, it would be better to cut it short directly. Anyway, it won't take long to grow again, and then leave your hair. After all, he has no intention of leading the trend of this era.

"Well~" Just when Li Zhang was so beautiful, suddenly I saw Qingzhi beside him covering his stomach and murmured softly, then frowned slightly, as if a little painful, which made Li Zhang hurriedly throw down the mirror and support her and ask with concern, "What's wrong, is the child kicking you again?"

It is not known whether the child is a man or a woman, but this little guy is very dishonest. Even if he likes to kick people before he was born, Qingori thinks it is a boy, but Li Zhang thinks his girl is also active, such as Li'er, so no one can tell.

"It feels wrong, it hurts so much!" Qingzhi said in pain at this time, and his body became softer and softer. In the end, it was all thanks to Li Zhang to support him so that she did not fall. She felt that her stomach was getting more and more painful, and she couldn't help but moan.

"Quick! Call the midwife!" Li Zhang immediately reacted and shouted loudly. At this time, Li Er also ran up to sit down with Qingzhi. It was obvious that she was about to give birth. In fact, Qingzhi's due date had passed, but there was no sign of giving birth. Li Zhang was not worried about this, because no one could explain the issue of giving birth clearly. The due date was just a reference, and it was normal to have a few days later or a few days earlier.

With everyone's help, Li Zhang also sent Qingzhi to the delivery room. The delivery room was ready, and it was prepared by Li Zhang himself. He used alcohol and lime inside and out, and the midwife had been invited to her for a long time and lived at home. Li Zhang even prepared several midwife tools. If the natural delivery was not possible, he could only deliver the baby himself.

After Aoi entered the delivery room, the amniotic fluid broke. However, the midwife invited was very experienced and everything was arranged in an orderly manner. Just listening to Qingori's painful moans in the room, Li Zhang became very anxious and kept walking outside the room. Qingori's mother Qian even put her hands together and kept chanting "Amitabha, Wuliang Heavenly Lord". Anyway, if you are useful, you can invite any god.
